Libby, city of Eagles

I'm in the library in Libby, MT, about 35/40 away from the Idaho state line, of which I plan to go through the whole of Idaho in a day, then get to Spokane for my birthday (which I may turn into my rest day). So unfortunately my camera has completely run out of juice, so all the memories i have of Glacier National Park will have to stay in my head. Luckily a very nice couple took pictures of me in the Sean Devereux t-shirt at the top of Logan Pass.

I am now on the west side of the continental divide, which means that all the water that lands as rain or melts off the rockies runs to the west side of the country, before it all ran to the east on the other side.

i'm feeling good, although a bit tired, and i must confess its about 6 days since i last had a shower, but as the temperature is so cold at the moment it means that i'm not sweating so much.

so last night didn't want to pay for a campsite so found a spot under a truck, in a quarry sorta place. it was cold!! i slept in my sleeping bag in my liner with jeans, wool socks, thermal baselayer, grandad top, and the hat marla made, then i put the emergency blanket over my toes then my other blanket over that.

so i put my bag of food ontop of the truck and head something scrabbling around ( i guess some kinda ferrety thing). its was scrabbling around all night, so i didn't get to sleep till 1. on the plus side, the sky was amazing, saw quite a few shooting stars, and made some wishes.
